There was a ship bound for New York City carrying many students. Among these people is a supernatural incest named Jason Vorhis. Jason is a killer who can not be stopped, where he was able to sink the ship and kill many people after many attempts of terrorism. A large group of students managed to escape to Manhattan after the escape, but the bad fate has not yet left them in New York, where a great hell awaits them in the form of an unexpected hockey mask.
This is easily the most disappointing of the original...movies - which is quite an achievement when you consider that the overall quality of the franchise was hardly high enough to raise expectations to a level that would allow for disappointment.
Among the passengers is a bright girl who's having visions of a drowning boy, her smarmy guardian, her concerned teacher, a boyfriend whose soon-to-be-late father is the ship's captain, and assorted high school stereotypes.
Not even remotely scary, and on top of that less than 1/3 of the film takes place in New York. False advertising, I say!

It's actually quite amazing that a film titled Jason Takes Manhattan never really takes place in Manhattan. At least the Muppets kept their titular promise to bite the Big Apple.
